PMSi and CRG team up
Control Risks Groups international maritime division has joined forces with PMSi (Port Maritime Security International) to offer a complete security solution throughout the logistics supply chain.
Whilst Control Risks’ consultants will provide strategic assessment and advice on port and terminal security, PMSI, a subsidiary of Eurotunnel plc, will provide training on all aspects of security for Control Risks’ maritime clients. A priority will be ensuring clients comply with the ISPS Code which comes into force on 1 July.
Les Chapman, Maritime Security Director at Control Risks says: “We selected PMSi as our partner because they have real knowledge and expertise gained through many years of managing security at the Channel Tunnel. Also, they have been certified by DNV and TRANSEC and their courses are recognised as the benchmark in the industry.”
David Anthony, Commercial Manager, PMSi, says: “Some ports have already stated they will ban ships that are not compliant and insurance experts are predicting that code compliance will almost certainly be a requirement for valid insurance.”
